Why did Sperro choose the non-profit God’s Helping Hands Inc. (GHH) to support in Guatemala?
Sperro chooses it’s projects based on the personal connections. We always seek to partner with non-profits who were recommend to us by people we trust. We always seek to work with non-profits that are well established within the community, and understand the needs of those they are seeking to help. God’s Helping Hands Inc. checked all of these boxes.
Is the work being done religious in nature?
Sperro always focuses on humanitarian, non-religious charity work.
What type of work will we be doing?
The work will be split between construction work and community work.
What type of skills do I need for this project?
Everyone has experience and skills which are useful, and will be used. You do not need to have a specific skill set to participate.
What will a typical day look like?
We will still start our day very early in the morning, eat breakfast, and then work on the construction portion of the project until noon. After lunch, part of the group will continue with the construction, and another group will dedicate the rest of the day to community work. We aim to structure the day around a typical 8 hour workday, but this may change depending on the needs of the project.
